Summary

Understanding the context of the Key Stage 2 framework for languages and how it is structured is an essential part of preparing your school for statutory provision of languages in the curriculum. Having a good repertoire of teaching strategies and ideas that are rooted in the Key Stage 2 Framework for Languages is what most primary teachers want to develop.

Knowing how to approach teaching and learning in the strands of literacy, oracy and intercultural understanding is new territory for many teachers and the practical sessions of this course address this very clearly.

 The course is very interactive and practical. You will not be required to have any prior knowledge of the Key Stage 2 framework.

• Understand how the Key Stage 2 Framework for Languages is structured
• Understand the expectations and outcomes of the literacy and oracy strands for all years in Key Stage 2
• Understand the expectations and outcomes of the Intercultural Understanding strand for all years in Key Stage 2
• Use a wide range of teaching activities to secure progression in the literacy, oracy and intercultural understanding strands
• Know how to use the online Primary Training Zone and its media library
• Explore how the Key Stage 2 Framework for Languages fits into the wider context of the National Curriculum Programme of Study for languages, National Curriculum levels, primary curriculum review, Key Stage 3 Framework For Languages, etc.
